I had the same problem. TEPO overtightened the crank pully bolt and cracked it. Well, when half of it decided to back out, the pulley chipped the crank. After replacing the head, I had a machinist come out to remove the remainder of the bolt and dowel pin the pulley. I haven't had any problems since. -Dave '88 Jetta GLI 16V '91 Jetta GTX 16V '84 Vanagon
